Overall, Reba McEntire: So Good Together CD is pretty good. It made great background music for me as I did things around the house. Sometimes I sang along and sometimes it made me stop and listen, while at other times, it was just music filling the air.
The …

When you have a hit like Dirty Dancing, you just keep trying to do things better, or over again with some little perk to keep people buying. That’s what the Dirty Dancing: The Collector’s Edition CD Set is, a ploy to get people buying. It works, too.

Animal Collective are critical darlings and the penultimate band of modern psychedelia. Their distinct style blends multipart falsetto vocal melodies (a la Beach Boys), hypnotic beats, and electronic experimentation. While Animal Collective exhibits a high degree of computerization in their songs, make no mistake — these songs have a …

Underwater Love is a song by the band Faith No More. This appears as the 7th track off of their hit album “The Real Thing. At the time Faith No More faced plenty of controversy with Red Hot Chili Peppers. For one they sound very similar, featuring prominent bass …

First off, I want to say that Linda Davis: Shoot for the Moon CD has a great liner jacket. On quality paper, all of the lyrics are printed in a readable fashion, with a decent font and light background. Better still for her fans, when you open …

These days, I am not even in the slightest bit interested in both Christina Aguilera’s music and Christina Aguilera herself; however when Christina first became popular years ago in my early years of high school, I had been interested in her music and she since was also one of …

The Vox AC15 CC is a 15watt class A tube amp that is something of an amalagam of previous AC 15 models. The amp is fairly big, and very heavy, weighing something in the neighborhood of 80 pounds, but it’s still easier lugging around than a halfstack.
The AC15 CC …

My favorite song on the album …

One of the most successful rock band Creed, has released a new live concert dvd in support of the Album Full Circle. It features the whole concert in Chicago and it was one of the concert DVD’s that I thought was really tampered with. I Think since Scott Stapps …

I first heard Taylor Swift’s “You Belong with Me” in my boyfriend’s iPod, and he was singing along with it like some lunatic so I just had to listen to it for myself to know what the hype was all about. Then wow, I was instantly hooked.
Personally I …

“Eagles Goth” is the 11th track on “Death by Sexy”. “Eagles Goth” is by far the shortest song on the entire album. What it lacks in length however, it makes up for in style.
“Eagles Goth starts off with a off key rockabilly riff. The guitar’s aren’t very impressive, the …

Light My Fire is a song by The Doors which appears on their self-titled debut record. Light My Fire is one of the better known songs by The Doors and there isn’t any reason as to why it shouldn’t be. There’s always those songs which are pretty well known …

Jesus Is King is Kanye West’s most arthouse album.
I’m surprised that “Jesus Is King” was Kanye’s lowest-rated album, especially considering that it sounds fresher than anything that came out in 2019 overall. Don’t think fresher = better, because this album is far from ideal. And there is a feeling …

When The Weeknd released his mega-hit “Earned It” earlier this year, (it was included in the elusive Fifty Shades soundtrack) I never really cared. In fact I hate that song, yes, until now. It wasn’t just my type of music and I was certainly surprised when everyone else I …

Plug In Baby is a track by Muse which appears on Origin Of Symmetry. Along with Knights Of Cydonia, Plug In Baby seems to be one of the more well known songs by Muse, because it appeared on I believe Guitar Hero or possibly Rock Band. However, the difference …

First of all….you need to realize that Metallica has LOST their flame a LOOOONG time ago. I would speculate that it was during their BLACK album that their flame went out. They are a piss poor representation of American Metal, and they do not deserve all the praise that …

Start Wearing Purple is a song by Gogol Bordello which appears on their debut record Voi-La Intruder. I should mention immediately that this track was re-recorded by the band on a later record, but I’m reviewing the version that appears on their debut record. Opening up with an accordion …

Overview —“ Side II of The Who Sell Out isn’t extremely different from side I, or at least I don’t think so, and it just isn’t quite as good. This isn’t to say that side II isn’t good though, some tracks on here still have some great parts to …

I am not a hug fan of the Pussycat Dolls, but I really like this song. And I think that what they are singing about in this song happens to a lot of couples at some point in their relationships. But sometimes, it gets a little out of hand …

I love the album Faster Pussycat by Faster Pussycat. I had never heard of this 1980’s hair band until about 4 years ago when my boyfriend bought a DVD that had one of their songs on it and I fell in love with it.

The very first time I was exposed to the sounds of this Cape Town based band, I thought I was listening to the music of an international act, so good was the song —˜I’d like’, and when I later learned that it was a local group, my curiosity levels …

In my review of The Shortest Straw, I said it was one of two songs that I would pick if I had to choose individual tracks which represent And Justice For All as a whole, The Frayed Ends Of Sanity would be my second choice. I said that The …

50 cent is a Rap star who is signed to Eminem and Dr. Dre on Aftermath Records and he has given the world such hits as ‘Wanksta’, ‘P.I.M.P.’ and �Heat�. I have been a 50 cent fan since 1997 and so when he signed his record deal I …

Hollywood Cantata is a song by The Grateful Dead which appears on their album Blues For Allah. The song opens up with a false start which I personally find unnecessary and purely filler. The track then goes into the actual take and opens up with an introduction which seems …

If you have never heard of Sonic Youth, if you are not familiar with their music, Rather Ripped is the very best album where you should start getting to know them. Before they released Rather Ripped, Sonic Youth have been an active band for twenty five years, and Rather …

Half of this band before they broke up was actually consisted of System of a Down member Daron Malakian who was the lead guitar player, and John Dolmayan who was the drummer. Daron this time around reprises his former role as a guitar player, but also acts the lead …

Besides Smoke on the water, Another really popular tune by them is Highway Star. This song to me is a great rock n roll tune thats well known for driving you car in because that is the theme of it. This song has an upbeat tempo in it and …

I could be listening to Let It Be a Secret - Biarlah Rahsia by Siti Nurhaliza for numerous times and still am not bored with it. This song is very melodramatic, very sad, poignant at its best and sung by the ever so popular Malaysian top singer, Siti Nurhaliza. …

“I Gave You Power” is the 4th track off of Nas 1996 album “It Was Written”. Although this song isn’t technically a single, it is one of the more well known tracks off of “It Was Written”. This is one of the best songs to exemplify just how well …

“Mass Hypnosis” is the 4th track on Sepultura’s infamous album “Beneath The Remains”. Although this happens to be one of my least favorite songs on this album, it is still pretty dang good. Especially by today’s music standards which is pretty much all rubbish and pish posh in my …
